As a senior member of the team, you will be responsible for coordination and oversight of the timely exit of each of the investments in the Infrastructure and Energy Capital global portfolio whilst working closely with regional teams and provide key input to manage divestment processes efficiently.

You will also be across the status of the value creation lifecycle of every investment, proposed timeline for divestment and status of ongoing divestment processes whilst understanding potential client risk/return appetite and status of client portfolios to help target their divestment processes appropriately.

Working with investment teams, you will review exit assumptions in new investment proposals and validate those assumptions in terms of target market and return expectations.

What you offer
• You will have deep global market knowledge and connections with important infrastructure investors, including infrastructure funds, sovereign wealth funds and large direct pension investors, to understand the target market for our investments.

• Able to demonstrate strong planning and prioritisation skills, with an ability to manage multiple concurrent tasks, keeping visibility on urgency/importance and re-adjusting prioritization as needed.

• Able to work well with investment teams located globally to establish strategies and timelines for exits from portfolio investments, as well as to collaborate in exit execution with these teams and internal advisory colleagues.

• Bias for action and strong execution skills to find solutions to complex challenges.

• Drive progress autonomously, whilst developing and maintaining key stakeholder relationships in a fast-paced environment with highly commercial, talented individuals with high-bar expectations

• Support investment teams with divestment processes by interfacing with both internal and external advisory teams as well as being a key interface with potential incoming investors
